Our internet service was down here at work for A WHOLE DAY. I know what you're thinking, but there aren't a lot of high cliffs to jump from here in Fooleryland, so I just texted my friends for support:
foolery: THE INTERNET HAS BEEN DOWN FOR HOURS. HOW DID PEOPLE SURVIVE IN CAVEMAN DAYS?! i feel faint . . .
CBW: oh no!
Gubby: They threw lots of rocks . . . give it a try.

CBW: They smoked. Signals. Or something.
Bocci: Mine working great . . . wish it wouldn't.
Mantel Man: Well, just make like the cavemen did and scrawl your status on the wall.
Meg: holy moses. i will fax you some chocolate stat!
Marcy: I honestly don't know. I mean WHAT DID THEY DO???
Marcy: Guess that is why they had so many kids. : )
Asia: Man, it must have been rough for you. I've had a similar experience this week a.k.a. Jury Duty.
Rick's Cafe: Ya better be cheering for my Butler Dogs!
So I guess the answer is, these days, we cavemen just text when we can't get online.

I guess I stood a better chance at chocolate if I had actually given Meg my fax number. And Rick, congratulations! Please don't fax me any dogs.
I should have been more clear... I meant "sleep with my husband." Which is why we are preggers with #4 within 4 years. (I think I'm so funny!)

It was like a 43-year fog, Meg. I can see clearly now.

Youre all over the Internutz, Ron. Especially one of you pulling The Little Woman by the ponytail.

Posted by: Meg | March 26, 2011 at 07:59 AM
Well I see you survived! And all is back to "normal" in Fooleryland.

I forgot to take my phone onto campus last week. HELL ON EARTH. I literally just had to READ and TALK TO PEOPLE. Bleh.

Question: Where did you find that picture of me with the cell phone?

When cave people read things like "want eat-feel like kill something" they laugh like hyenas.

You got it, Pierre, but your pager was off. : )

Who says caveman days are over? I never got the memo!

Shhhhhhh, please whisper, Rick! Sparky wants a bulldog and I told her no. With the addition of a new goldfish this week I am up to here [indicates ceiling] with pets.

Thanks Foolery, couldn't have won without your support!!
Bull dogs are pretty cute...I bet a couple of beagles would love to have a puppy :)

Oh, thats GOOD, boB. And I know that if I had had your cell phone number, your text would have made me laugh, too. You always do!

I saw a T-Shirt (where else .. at Wal-Mart) that said "The internet was down today so I thought I'd come outside".
